◈ Genius Shin-Gung who became a one-man army (122)

“……yes?”

It had only been a few minutes since I had met Seyla again after a long time and shared my joy.

What Seila said next was unexpected.

“Parcontium?”

“okay.”

Ceyla nodded with a calm expression.

Before we knew it, Meladion’s army had crossed the border and began to advance in earnest.

There has been no direct fighting yet, but if they enter and reach Miltoven, the city closest to the border, fighting is inevitable.

“We must quickly form a delegation for Parcontium.”

To do that, we need three promising players who can proceed with Parcontium.

Only one person is confirmed: Isaac.

And we had a few candidates selected, but one of them was Lian.

In a way, you could say that he is the only promising player acknowledged by the genius Isaac.

“Hmm… I guess there’s nothing I can do.”

“So, I’m sorry, but can I run a quick test for you?”

“Ah… Well, some time has passed since you left, right?”

I can understand why Saila brought this up.

It’s a given.

The delegation leaves with the pretext of initiating a non-aggression pact and signing another, but Parcontium is a battle that will require those who participate in it to risk their lives.

Only the strong ones can survive.

As such, the Baroque Kingdom is a very serious and merciless place when it comes to martial arts.

Even three years ago, before he left the unit, Lian was already strong enough.

And it was acknowledged.

But we can’t ignore his trait of being an archer.

When it comes to dueling, it’s not like it’s a forest full of bushes, and you can’t keep a long distance.

The match may be over before Lian even gets involved.

As soon as Seila gave the signal, a knight wearing light armor came in.

He seemed to be a little over thirty years old, and he was a man with an impressive, stocky physique and sharp eyes.

“This is Adjutant Nick Bell. He may not be able to use Auror, but his swordsmanship is considered one of the best in the kingdom.”

In addition, he is one of Seyla’s most cherished subordinates because he is excellent at commanding troops.

Nickbell approached Lian and held out his hand.

“This is Nick Bell. I’ve heard a lot of rumors about you, Lian.”

“i look forward to.”

Lian smiled and shook his hand. Then, he headed to the training room in Seyla’s unit.

The duel between Lian and Nick Bell became a hot topic in an instant.

The title of Captain Arrowhead was quite famous even within the Kingdom of Artian.

The duel with Nickbell, who had outstanding swordsmanship even in the 6th Corps, was bound to pique the interest of others.

In an instant, quite a few people gathered at the training ground.

“Rian, the use of auras is prohibited.”

“Is magic also forbidden?”

“Not allowed if you don’t use artifacts.”

It is originally intended to meet conditions.

It is said that it is possible to slightly increase physical abilities with magical power.

Lian nodded and looked at the bow.

“Oh, I always owe you something.”

Lian burst into laughter as she looked at the new bow she had just received.

Because it was a bow that Walter had put considerable effort into making during the time he was away.

It was a bow with a purple shaft and gold patterns engraved on it.

A bow mixed with Lactorium, known as the metal of the gods.

It has a higher magical conductivity than mithril and is so elastic that it is impossible to pull without strength and skill.

Of course, this doesn’t apply to Lian.

“I will use the bow for practice.”

However, there are some aspects of this bow that are a bit excessive for use in this type of sparring.

Unless you intend to kill your opponent.

‘It’s been a long time since we last met.’

It’s such a long conversation as soon as we meet.

I thought it was like Seyla.

Lian spoke to Nickbell while holding the training bow in the training ground.

“I hope you know that I never intended to be rude.”

“We’ll know the result anyway.”

You’re speaking politely, but do you still feel a little bit hurt?

Lian immediately flinched at the sharp momentum of Nickbell looking at her.

Nod.

And when Lian signaled that she was ready, Saila said:

“start.”

Pavat-!

As soon as Seila spoke, Nickbell quickly ran towards Lian.

Anyway, if you give it time and distance, it will be Lian who will have the advantage.

But before Nick Bell could even take a few steps closer.

puck-!

“Huh!”

There was a whooshing sound, and then Nickbell’s expression slightly distorted.

It was because of the pain I felt momentarily in my left thigh.

“If I had a touch, it would have gone through.”

“…….”

Nick Bell, who was standing there for a moment, couldn’t hide his bewildered expression. But what was even more surprised was Seyla.

‘I didn’t see it… … ?’

To shoot an arrow, a series of steps are required, including holding the arrow, firing the bow, pulling the bow, and releasing it.

Of course, if you are a skilled archer, the speed will be incredibly fast, and if you just try to shoot quickly, you can even shoot in the blink of an eye.

But now it’s Dalian.

It’s not just the rapid fire that’s important, it’s hitting your opponent accurately.

But how can you aim for your opponent’s legs so accurately and at such a fast pace?

If it was a pointed arrow like Lian said, it would have already caused a major injury to his leg.

What was even more surprising was that immediately after Lian shot an arrow at Nickbell, he slid away from him.

Lian moved quickly as if she was gliding on an icy road, fired one arrow, and then took aim again while moving.

If it was a real battlefield, it would be like Lian holding Nickbell in the palm of her hand and playing with him.

“……The match is over.”

Ceyla had no choice but to admit it.

You’re fighting an inspector like this with pure archery without even using your aura?

I’ve been in the military for quite some time, but I’ve never seen or heard of anything like this.

Nickbell looked dazed for a moment at the match that ended so easily that it was almost absurd. However,

“……I lost.”

Nickbell bowed politely to Lian as he sheathed his sword.

Sometimes this happens.

This is the case when the match ends too quickly and is not convincing.

But Nick Bell knows.

It wasn’t that I let my guard down, nor was I underestimating him.

I moved with the alert that an arrow might fly right at me, but I couldn’t even react.

I had already realized that the difference in skill between me and him was so great that it could not be explained in words.

“thank you.”

Lian also greeted Nickbel politely and looked at Seyla.

“Can I go to the Baroque Kingdom with this?”

“Now everything is ready. We’ll be leaving tomorrow, so get ready.”

“……That’s fast.”

“If it weren’t for your schedule, you should have left a long time ago. And the situation is not good right now.”

Lian nodded, knowing that he was talking about the Meladion army that had crossed the border.

Said Saila to him.

“And there are people who are desperately waiting for you.”

“……?”

Soon Lian could tell who it was.

* * *

It was a room with gray walls and swords and shields displayed on the walls.

There was no flashiness at all, but because of that, it had a very calm and heavy feeling.

Marquis Paruka Kaymiller.

He was the prime minister of the Baroque kingdom and the center of current power.

He is involved in politics with his outstanding brain, but he is also a high-level Aura user and is also one of the best in the continent in spearmanship.

dripping.

Just then someone knocked on the door of Paruka’s office.

“Lord Paruka, this is a letter from the Kingdom of Artian.”

“The Kingdom of Artian?”

After the War of Succession ended, these guys were quiet.

I guessed that it might be because of the Meladion Kingdom, which was located on the border.

The corners of Paruka’s mouth went up as he read the letter.

“Hehe, that’s interesting.”

As expected, it was related to the Kingdom of Meladion, but what caught Paruka’s attention the most was the Parcontium.

How many decades has it been since another kingdom applied for Parcontium?

Since Parcontium is now virtually disappearing into tradition, the mere mention of it was intriguing.

“Without going crazy.”

At the same time, I also developed a sense of pride.

Because I thought it was crazy to suggest that Parchontium simply be used to suppress their attacks.

If by any chance the warriors who join Parcontium are scum, the Artian Kingdom will have to pay the price for humiliating them.

And if you bring in a real prospect who is not that one, then you are throwing away the prospect who will be responsible for the future of the kingdom.

Neither side would benefit from it… … .

“That’s interesting, let’s make it happen.”

“All right!”

The man holding the letter answered Paruka’s words and immediately turned around.

And Paruka, left alone, simply read the letter again and burst into laughter.

* * *

Lian couldn’t hide her delight at seeing someone who wanted to meet her.

“Isaac?”

“Lord Lian!”

Lian asked with wide eyes at the sight of the guy who had changed so much.

Isaac, who had grown up so much in the past three years, approached me with a bright smile of joy.

“It’s been a while.”

“Wow… I didn’t know it would change like this.”

But Lian already knew.

Because right now, it was the very Isaac that Lian had longed for in her past life.

‘When I first met you, you were so small that I was embarrassed.’

Now the boy’s appearance seemed a little off.

Lian shook his hand happily and took a seat.

“What happened? It changed so much.”

It wasn’t just the appearance.

The energy that is gathered. And even the breathing.

Isaac’s appearance, which was already far beyond the level of his peers, was both familiar and unfamiliar to Lian.

Isaac shook his head at Lian’s words.

“It’s strange for you to say something like that, Lian. What on earth happened?”

Isaac coolly assessed Lian’s condition.

I thought it was great before, but now it seems almost beyond common sense.

Lian just scratched the ball and said.

“I just… spar with the master, and when I’m not sparring, I sleep out for a few days in the forest inside the Taikan Mountains and stuff….”

“……yes?”

If you’re talking about a forest within the Taikan Mountains, aren’t you talking about a monster paradise?

You said you slept there for a few days?

Dreaming.

What kind of time have you been having?

Isaac just blinked his eyes wide, speechless.

Lian just burst into laughter at the sight of Isaac like that.

“That’s in the past. More importantly, Lady Seyla was talking about Parcontium, so one of them would be you, right?”

“yes.”

In fact, it can be said that the Parcontium was made possible because of Isaac.

It was Isaac who recommended Lian.

Lian nodded at his answer.

“Then do you know who the other one is?”

“It’s not 100% decided yet, but I think I can guess who it will be.”

“Who is it?”

“It’s Apel.”

“……Apel?”

Oh, there he was.

Lian nodded in agreement with Isaac’s words.
